A New Way to Guzzle Gas

E-mail all your friends.... resolve to boycott BP and EXXON stations for 30 days.... and watch the prices drop.

Its not supply thats a problem its price. Gas /Oil goes up demand decreases, but not according to Wall Street.They are creating a false scarcity of oil to drive prices higher to get not only more money, but to have people scream for more drilling when its not needed. They were denied drilling there so now create the impression of a shortage and they'll scream for you to drill and make more money. Oh our increase also makes corn prices go up too so we can nip that whole ethanol in the bud too.Interesting that oil goes up 33 cents a year whenever a Bush is in office. You would think he was an oil man or something....oh yeah. I loved their response is that they only make 8% profit. Yes on gas it may be 8% but they also supply their own oil to make that gas....and right now its the oil making record profits for them.You don't make record profits when you pay more to make your product., but hey if the actual cost to make it stays the same and the price increases...hey it sounds like profit to me.

In case you may have missed it, there is a little thing going on called, ???GOBBLE WARMING.??? It???s been further suggested that fossil fuel use is a major contributor to this ever increasing concern and threat to our lives. Most of the people around the world has come to grasp not only an understanding of this problem, but also collectively strive to reduce the pollution.

That is excepting for the American people, who seems to reject any personal need to get involved in someone else???s problem. After all, most Americans barely consume a mere thousand gallons or so each year, certainly, in their minds, not worthy of any special going out of one???s way.

The powers to be that drives the United States has determined, ???ENOUGH.??? From now on, what the consumers refuse to do, we shall do for them. Aim straight for the pocket book, for there is the answer....Wow, were they right. The news today reflect mass transit is now in gridlock from the over crowding.

I???m really beginning to think our nation is without smart or reliable or effective leadership from the President, especially from the President, down to the street sweeper supervisors.

It may be a God sent Obama showed up just in time. By-the-way, I strongly suggest we hang onto Guatanamo Bay facilities in Cuba, they???ll make a great place to keep George W. Bush and his gang.

There is not one word about punishment for these acts.Is it time to bring back the rope?

Are most of the people commenting on this retarded? The grammar mistakes are unreal, I couldn't comprehend half of the stuff militarylife wrote. That is why he joined the military because he could not figure how to fill out an application for the local fast food establishment.
I agree that as a country we are lazy, but I don't think it is bothering people as much as the media is hyping. If it was a true crisis, how come Indiana Jones and Kung Fu Panda are making so much money? How is it possible that Hummers and Cadilacs are still being purchased? As a country we are living past our means, but still figure how to get past. The cost of fuel will drop when the republicans realize that there is a chance they will not be in the White House next year (they own the oil after all), then they will say, "Hey, look what WE did for the country". Just like that shitty $600 they so graciously gave back to us. That helped me pay off my school bills.
Housing foreclosures are being hyped rediculously (for which I'm thankful, as a potential home-buyer). Yeah, its happening, but a majority of it is centralized in certain areas (again, living past their means).
Fuel will drop, it may not be by much, but it cannot keep rising if the republicans want any chance of ever being a main party contender. Ethanol is a waste as a fuel. The world is in a food crisis and here in America, we are burning food so we can drive through the fast food window.
I don't blame the republicans for everything, just the national debt and fuel prices. Thanks, Haliburton.
Oh, and I am not a democrat either.

Military life I live in Miami and if you ride a bicycle here they will run your ass over, and no body wants to carpool, and if you drive a small car they will run your ass off the road, and public transportation sucks, so to tell you the truth I don't care if gas comes to 10.00 bucks somehow I'll manage to get it

Jcolew, You are rude AND YOU didn't spell Cadillac correctly!

I think our frustration is stemming from, "why are people reduced to stealing gas"

You know, the real problem is that most of us just sit and "make comments". Nobody "does" anything anymore. How about driving a smaller car! How about walking when you can. How about riding a bike. How about just staying at home once in a while and spend quality time with family members. Ride a bus. Car pool.
But the problems don't just stop at the pump, or start there either. People don't do what Americans used to do. That is, stick together. Help eachother out. When was the last time you helped your neighbor out without wanting something in return... Seems to me that people only care about themselves now a days and "their rights". Selfish!
One of you said Bush is sticking to his plan (paraphrased). Well, he is. He is concerned about America. He is a politician though. I'm certain that he has done some things he normally wouldn't, presured by "politics".
Environmentalists are too extreme, and those who think we should do anything and everything we want to are too extreme in the opposit direction.
Just like the "freedoms" we have, we need to manage our environment as we should manage ourselves. The real problem lies there. We have left our responsibilities. We point at everything and everyone else. We let our neighborhoods go to pot and blame the "hoodlum" as we sit and watch. All we do is hang on the net and watch trashy sitcoms and wonder why everything is a mess!!! (I don't watch the trashy stuff on T.V.)
We can all sit here and post comments all day. What is it going to do unless we take action. Start caring for our communities, how our country is run, and, yes, stand up for what is right! Notice, I said what is right. That is what we, as individuals, know is the truth, whether we like it or not.
Well, I guess I could go all night but, it will accomplish nothing unless I do my part. I do as much as I can. By the way, I'm not the old person you may have imagine. Just someone who believes that the old-fashion values weren't so bad or "old-fashion". Someone who would like to see a country with a people who would get it together and have common goals. I really saddens me!

I've seen a video about water fuel and even heard they invited the man responsible to show Congress now as to where it has gone from there is anyone's guess! And yes I agree with And1722 we American's have became "Crybabies" expecting everyone else to get us out of our situation. The President is an oilman and doesn't even have to pay for his own gas and I'd say none of his family has had to for years so I don't think he's going to be sympathetic to us "Common Folk"! And I damn sure don't think Obama is going to help us!! We are in for a long row to hoe for quite a few years. I am older, well not really, only 48 but I feel sorry for my grandchildren and what they can expect in their older years!! Hell, as it is now they may never get to drive a car!

I thought this was about stealing gas

Well, if we ever need hot air, we'll know where there is an abundant supply cholex!
